Join Us for Worship and Meditation
The Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) began in England in the 1640s. For over 300 years, Friends have gathered for meeting in silent expectation. We have no minister, no altar, no sacraments, no sermon, and no choir. Friends believe that every human is endowed with a measure of Light (sometimes referred to as God or as the Spirit). In silence, people can experience this Light directly. During the silence anyone may feel moved to offer a simple spoken message that is inspired by this holy encounter. Following the message, the silence resumes. A period of worship may include several messages or none.
CEDAR FALLS QUAKERS ARE ON HIATUS
The Cedar Falls Quakers have been meeting weekly for 38 years. This fall, for a variety of reasons, we are experiencing a decrease in members who can attend regularly. Therefore, we will not be meeting this fall or winter absent an influx of new attendees.
During our hiatus, please send us a message with any questions about the Cedar Falls Quaker Meeting, to request our email newsletter (with updates on the hiatus), or to indicate an interest in attending. We hope our Quaker flock will increase in numbers in 2025!
